KAUAI NOTES.

Broken legs are very prevalent on
Kauai. Almost every week bull
lock driver, either in Kapaa, Lihue,
or Koloa, has a leg broken by the
carts.
During the recent heavy rains,
there were several freshets. Hana-
lei suffered most and the roads in
Koloa are in bad state.
An unusually large number OF
passengers, both foreign and native,
came down on the Mikahala. Three
wagon loads went from Nawiliwili to
Koloa and that side of the Island,
and four went to Kapaa and beyond.
Mr.. Jolnstone, the acting Inspec-
tor, is making tour of our Island,
and is examining all the government
schools very closely.
Within the last few weeks, there
have been several deaths among the
natives.
A young Japanese couple, in Lii
hue, were recently united in the
holy bonds of matrimony by the
Rev. j. b. Hanaike. The bride is
sweet sixteen, and the happy groom
only 21 years of age.
a new sugar storehouse is heins
added to the Lihue mill and a fresh
coat of paint has improved the ap'
pearance of the mill.

HilO NOTES.

Work has begun on the new In
dustrial Building for Hilo Boarding
School. The carpenter shop will be
put up first, and afterwards the
main building. All work is to be
done by the boys of the school,
under the direction of the principal,
the Rev. Mr.. Burt, who is himself u
carpenter and builder. Eleven boys
are now at work learning the car
penter's trade. When the building
is up it is hoped that this school will
be able to give its pupils a good
start towards the carpenters, the
printers, and the tailors' trades.
Other departments may be organ
lied as opportunities offer.
SEVERN, the photographer, still
holds forth in Hilo. He has "taken"
all of the schools of the place dur
ing the past week. Some of his
negatives are very fine.

Is hard to make Hawaiian children
understand, for the simple reason
that they are matters which do not
enter into the experience or come
under the observation of children
on these islands. But perhaps the
greatest defects of these books for
our purpose is, that they do not
contain sufficient number Of sim
pie lessons. The Hawaiian boy and
girl, in learning English, are learn
ing foreign language, and require
q much greater number of elemen-
tary lessons, than boys and girls
who are simply learning to read
what they have learnt to lisp and
prattle on their mothers knees. The
Hawaiian is learning the sound, the
written sign, and the meaning of
the word, all at the same time.
Hence the necessity of a greater
number of easy lessons, containing
nothing but short and simple words,
linked together in every possible
combination, TO familiarise them to
the eye and the ear of the learner,
and impress their significance on his
mind.
The editor of the Il. T.. g., in
commenting on the article from
which we have made brief quota
ton above, refers to fault ofyoung
teachers in our schools, of wishing
to "push on and accomplish more
than is required" which "leads to
endless trouble to the teachers who
have to build on their foundation. "
Continues the editor, 1.-The only
way we can suggest to amend this
fault is to give the principals OF
the large schools where many
teachers are employed more time tc
superintend and direct the younger
ones" Without touching upon the
question of young teachers attempt
ing TO force their pupils on toe
rapidly, and not thoroughly ground.
ing them in the primaries, we Ger.
tainly think that the principals OF
large schools should have little OF
no teaching to do. For instance, in
a school like the Royal School, with
three to four hundred pupils and
ten or dozen teachers, the principal
should be exempt from class duties,
and be solely superintendent ant
examiner. No one man can posi-
bly, teach class regularly and pro-
perly superintend school of tina
size. Thorough supervision ha'
vastly more to do with the eflicienc,
of large school than inexperienced
people imagine.

Great Excitement in Wales
about a Marvellous Cure.
Living Six Years Without
Going to Bed.

MIR. DITOR:-While spending Il few
days at the pleasant seaside Town of
Aberystwith, Card iganshirc, Wales, l
heard related what seemed TO me either
fabulous story or n marvellous cure.
The story was that poor sufferer who
had not been able to lie down in bed for
six long years, given up 20 die by all The
Doctors, had been speedily cured by
some Patent Medicine. 1t was related
with the more implicit confidence from
the circumstance, rs was said, that the
Vicar Of Llanrystyd was familiar with
the facts, and could vouch for the truth
of the report.
Having little curiosity to know how
such stories grow in travelling, | took

seemed TO them u most remarkable cure.
He strongly vouched Mr.. VIM. Pugh's

NO MONEY, NO WORK.

This is a money-loving, a money
seeking, and a money-making age.
Perhaps in these things the present
pretty closely resembles the past,
only that we know more about our
own times than the times which
preceded us. Anyhow, very minute
or very extended observation is not
required to discover that pursuit of
money in this age, and among peo-
Piles claiming to be in the forefront
Of advancing civilization, is the great,
all-absorbing aim. Even clergymen
some clergymen-who Of all men
are supposed to be above the love of
"filthy lucre" and to have their
affections set on things above" this
sublunary sphere, are sometimes
found showing preference for
churches and congregations which
pay the highest stipends. Demago-
gic politicians, who prate Of
patriotism and dilate on their large
hearted and undying love for the
dear people whom they yearn to
serve, are found secretly guaging
their patriotism and measuring their
love by the amount Of money they
can absorb from the country or
squeeze from the people.
Perhaps the world IS getting worse
in this regard: perhaps it is not /:
there certainly is room for it to
grow better. This part of the world
in which we live seems to have be-
come worse-decidedly worse. Our
patriots and politicians, for the most
part, do not take any particular
pains to conceal the fact that their
primary and ultimate object is
money. They have become imbued
with the belief that the public
treasury was created mainly, if not
solely, for their special benefit. And
so strong is their faith, that on every
occasion when an opportunity offers,
they plunge their hands in with the
boldness of lion, and grab all they
can. Everyone, regardless of brains,
education, and experience, considers
himself fit and proper person for
seat in the Legislature, or for the
highest Office in the Government.
That is, he feels himself competent
to draw the pay, which is the great
duty Of position, and the higher the
pay the greater the ability. AS for
the work; well, in the legislative
hall he can stand up and blow off
sound for an hour at time, without
saying single thing, or sit quietly
down, and hold up his hand, accord
ing to direction, when required. In

EDUCATIONAL

Under the heading of "Educa-
tional," writer in the Anglican
Church Chronicle for the present
month, says "How much in need
we are in the Islands of one or two
readers, expressly for Hawaiian
children, dealing with things and
facts that come under the daily OBJ
servatiOn of those taught" Every
one who has had any experience in
teaching Hawaiian children English
has felt this want. The imported
readers for children in primary
schools, although excellent for Eng
disappearing children, and precisely
adapted to the requirements of
schools in the countries from which
they come, are not well suited TO
primary Hawaiian schools. They
treat so much of matters which it

all official position, he finds deputy
to do the work, while he takes his
ease and pleasure, excrting himself
TO the utmost on one day in the
month-the last day-to be OH hand
at the treasury. Some uncharitable
people have gone so far as to say
that two-thrds, or thereabout, of
the representative votes of the
Legislature can be purchased for q
small sum of money, such is the
love for that commodity among the
nations great men. This, of course,
must be taken as an extreme view,
and gross libel on that honorable
body of patriots.
But this one fact is patent, that
the genius of the nation is against
doing any kind of service in the
national interest or for the public
good, without pay. TO be sure, the
nation is not so utterly sordid as not
to have some worthy individual ex-
ceptions. Unfortunately, they are
extremely scarce. The general senti.
ment is, "no money, no work. "
Rather let the country 90 to the dogs

and the public interests perish, than
render the minutest service without
money compensation. The idea OF
serving in Il Municipal Council or Oh
district Road Board without q
salary is absurdly ridiculous, utterly
incomprehensible! Whoever heard
of such thing? 1t is not right; il
is not reasonable 1t cannot be done
No: why not? Perhaps it is moi
altogether practicable to have an un
paid Parliament here, like in Great
Britain and some other countries
but we have low estimate of {
mans patriotism, who is unwilling
to render gratuitOus service to hi:
country, as far as he is able, without
neglecting his own concerns ant
those of his family.

Arrangements are in progress for the con-
struction of an immense reservoir in the

the northeastern part Of the city. Work
has been resumed on the new well, and the

preparations for adding to the permanent
supply and distribution OF water. Upon
the completion OF the new well and reser-

Immediately after the return of the Sum-

they held a meeting and resolved to send the
Greenville Guards testimonial of their APP
probation OF that companys marked hospl-
tality to them during their stay IN the Noun
tain City. The testimonial which consists
of an elegant gold medal, has just been COM
pleted, aad was sent to the Greenville Guards
Sunday by express. 1t is fac-simile of the
Sumter Guards company medal, only larger.
The pendant represents a shield, with a
gamecock, the well-known device of the
company perched on top of it, The face of
the pendant is engraved with palmetto
tree, beneath which is the name Of the com
pany and the date of the organization-1837.
The reverse side bears the following incrip-
ton: Presented to the Greenville Guards
by the Sumter Guards, of Charleston, S. c.,
August Z, 1887" The last is the date of the
trip. The shield is suspended from a gold
bar and pin inscribed with the company
motto, In statione nostra parati." The
souvenir is intended as a company medal for
the Greenville Guards, to be retained by
them as prize in their annual shooting or
drilling contest.

the pair disagree with him. The only thing
needed TO connect these two with the mys-
terry is a musl1et, and something in that
direction may be proved yet, though at the
present time the gentlemen who are inter
eSted in working up the case do not deem IL
advisable to make any statement concerning
the information they have on that point
1t may not be such difficult matter as it
is supposed to locate and arrest the murder
err. DR.. Dupon has in his employment ne
gro man named John Robertson who
worked last year with H. G.. Ward, the build
err of this city and Robertson says that
he remembers negro carpenter here who
answers the description of the man who
was seen with the woman supposed to be the
victim in the murderOus affair. He Is tall,
very black, and he has lump or wen over
his eye. A search was made last night but
no carpenter answering that description
could he found. Robertson, however, is
positive that there is such one in the city,
and if there is he will be found easily.
The people Of Isle of Hope, Beaulieu and
the vicinity feel very great interest III the
affair and they are sparing themselves no
trouble in following up the clues that they
obtain. The story given above IS not
one that was brought to light In
casual conversation or by
few hours search 1t is the result of an I'M
told amount of work done by the white
people of that section in the time interven-
ing between the finding of the body and
yesterday. They have questioned almost
every negro in the locality, and it was
only by putting together small facts that
were obtained from different sources
that they succeeded in bringing out
the statements given above. DIR. Dupon
is leading the investigation, and he says that
he and his neighbors do not intend to drop
the matter until the murderer receives his
just reward. From one OF two remarks that
were made yesterday it was judged that
If the murderer is ever caught in
that part of the county the
court will not be troubled with bin. The
action of the County Commissioners in de
claring their willingness to appropriate
money from the county funds to pay the ex-
penses of a county officer i'll pursuing and
criminals met with the hearty
and loudly expressed approval of the people
Of that section, and they say that the only
thing now needed is for the county Com
misioners to send some one to unravel the
mytserY of Beal1lieu
